Light soiling and wear to boards; textblock fore edge deckled, toning to page margins with light foxing intermittent throughout. Overall Near Fine, without dustwrapper. E.E. Cummings' Tom is the a…uthor's avant-garde attempt to interpret Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel Uncle Tom's Cabin as a ballet. Gestures are described through Cummings' prose-poetry, while the characters themselves are reimagined as doll-like entities. While Cummings intended for this project to eventually make it to a real stage, it was never performed in his lifetime, having seen multiple rejections for its inaccessibility.

First edition, presentation copy, inscribed by the author to his French translator on the front free endpaper, "Inscribed for D. Jon Grossman by E. E. Cummings, May 10 '51", and additionally signed by Cummings on the first blank. David Jonathan Grossman (1922-1990) first met Cummings whilst attending Peter Monro Jack's course at… Columbia night school in 1941-42. After serving in the Second World War, Grossman attended Harvard in 1946 and began writing a thesis on Cummings, which he never finished. According to Grossman this was the start of their correspondence proper. In 1947 he moved to Paris but maintained the friendship; throughout the following years he wrote to or visited Cummings in the US. By 1960 he had published his first translation, and in 1980 he was awarded the Prix Halperine-Kaminsky for his Cummings translations. Firmage A15. Octavo. Colour frontispiece by Ben Shahn. Original brown cloth, spine and front cover lettered in silver, brown endpapers, fore and lower edges uncut. With supplied dust jacket. Spine ends gently bumped, light rubbing and couple of marks, faint splash marks to first blank; jacket unclipped, a few shallow chips and closed tears, light marks: a very good copy in like jacket.
